I've not heard of people with Dementia getting ECT? If they stop eating sometimes a feeding tube is inserted. If an older person who is of sound mind wants to prolong their lives with surgeries then it's their right. I know a lot of people who pay with cash now. Since this new health plan many are seeking cash only docs. At least around here? I don't think insurance will pay for those proceedures after the lst. People are different and even euthanasia is alive and well in some hospitals here. My husbands Mother chose this when she found out she had Lou Gerhigs. Got a morphine drip, a last drink and chose to die. No vents for her. She had been to artistic to not be able to do what she loved. Phillipa
